Color Used

[MahaB82A]

This work shows color used in the RHS. There is a color code next to color swatches [time 20.26]. Is this color code is tutor's work or standard code by Ai?

20:26 is the end of the video? Can you please take a screenshot and post it here?

[MahaB82A]

Sorry I had made a mistake. It is 1.57 not 20.26

This is something the creator of that video did: creating those shapes filled with color and also the text running beside.

C=Cyan, M=Magenta, Y=Yellow

What are you referring to with RHS?

[MahaB82A]

Thank you. English is not my mother tongue.

The codes you quote are just the color definitions.

[MahaB82A]

Is there any chart for this code by Ai? or is this given by tutor?

[Monika Gause · Accepted solution]

The guy has just set up some colors.

When you create your own colors, you can name them however you want.

For example:

• Headline blue
• 100C, 60M, 0Y, 20K
• 100C/60M/20K (missing colors are understood to be zero ( 0 )
• C100 - M60 - Y0 - K20

Generally, it's a good idea to have a process color (aka CMYK) guide, such as:

However, there will be differences due to press quality and paper quality.

I wasn't sure what RHS referred to either, so I don't think it was a language issue. Possibly just an abbreviation used by the user/company. (For example, I was taught to use "TK" for any graphics "to come" but nobody I've run into knows of this appreviation.)

Thanks for all.
